When it comes to improving profitability, pricing is one of the most powerful tools at your disposal. With a granular view, better understand both the internal and external factors affecting profitability. Price across product and territories, get a comprehensive view of your value proposition across your portfolio, and model pricing moves with real-time feedback. Instantly review proposed pricing-effect scenarios across volume and P&L, and against the previous year. Review category plans across territories and drill into pricing plans.

Anaplan aligns long-term planning with strategic initiatives. Drive your speculation-to-action strategy with multiple scenario simulations to analyze alternatives across a wide range of conditions. Optimize signals analysis for the demands of the financial analyst who needs to assess risk, stress-test economic scenarios and determine the best course of action. Anaplan empowers you to navigate the uncertainties in long-range financial forecasts and link directly to your strategic modeling. It enhances integration after the merger or acquisition closes, providing integration across various systems and an aggregated view of the newly structured enterprise to orchestrate performance and profit.
